My mom is currently at the Phoenix airport, preparing to fly out to Seattle for her very first visit here since I moved. This means a variety of wonderful things, including but not limited to:
– My dog will get trained
– My car will get fixed
– My closet will get organized
– My fridge will have food in it other than Diet Coke and ketchup
I was at work yesterday afternoon wandering around the office collecting people’s leftovers from lunch to take home to eat for dinner. And MAN did I have a feast afterward (beef taco with cheese, homemade blueberry pie and cinnamon cookies … I’m sure all the food groups made it in there somewhere), but people were like, “Uh … does anybody feed you?” No. Nobody feeds me. And therein lies the problem. So my mom will be here to feed me, hooray!
But anyway she will be here in three and a half hours, which means the cleaning of my apartment must commence NOW. But don’t worry, I’ll be by later to check in with you guys.
Hot! she ever joined a celeb/rich dating site ♥♥♥♥ wealthyrom anceS.Com ♥♥♥♥ It’s a place for romancing with the rich & celeb….
Hahaha. Do you really collect your coworkers’ leftovers? You’re like an adorable cartoon character.
Dude, I’m keeping the lisabeller comment, even though it’s spam. Just the mental image of my mother using that kind of site puts a grin on my face.
Glad you will have food in your fridge and an organized closet. While your mom is up there, I will be down here babysitting her piisst off cat that hates me.
That is a good image, Beet. haha. Take before and after pics of your fridge, closet and maybe even the dog? haha=)
@Nonnie:
Ha ha, my mom told me you were babysitting Schro and I was like, “But Mom, Schrodinger hates Nonnie!” Ha ha ha ha ha!!! Maybe this time you two will resolve your differences. If it makes you feel any better, he doesn’t like me much either, and I’m the one who adopted him in the first place.
I mean really…don’t you make a like a gazillion dollars from this site and adversting???? Damn..you’d think you were still some freshman struggling to get by!
Still luv your site though…
@H-town:
Money does not buy personal responsibility, unfortunately.
Man Beet, your Mom sounds like part Florence Henderson (the Mrs. Brady part!) and part Fonzi… is she going to the airport to get on a plane or is she just going to fly over to your house on her own! :-)
When she’s done, send her to North Sydney… I’m just living off of Diet Coke and Tim Tams. :-(
Oh Oh Oh Oh! You ought to send her up to the 5th floor to knock on the BMW/”hand in his pocket” guy” to ask for a cup of sugar and do some recon for you. :-)
I’m a struggling junior in college, if you want to help me out, financially, you know. Since I just took out a 20,000 loan=) but you are right about money not buying personal responsibility, but it does buy a dog trainer, a maid, and a personal grocery shopper-person.
beet…time to grow up. maybe you should ask your mommy to teach you how to cook while she’s in town. and also? you can pay people to train your dog, you know. try ahimsa dog training in ballard.
Good Luck w/ your Mom! Take some pics-if she’ll let you! I’d love to see your Momma! :)
I don’t know why, but this entry reminded me of that Friends episode where somebody ate Ross’s turkey sandwich at work, and he had to go through counseling because it made him so angry… haha.
Yeah, I’m addicted. No shame.
@ Katia: Yes, the “Moistmaker!” :-)

Waving “hi” to Beet’s Mom. Yes, ma’m she’s been good.
My fridge just used to have a can of Reddi whip and a snickers bar
